(CS)²AI Online™ Replay: How to Best Combine Human Expertise & Technology Strengt

This panel discussion explores the dynamic intersection between human expertise and advanced technology in strengthening cybersecurity for critical infrastructure. As the frequency, complexity, and destructive potential of cyber threats escalate, we must revisit our current strategies and improve efficiency by leveraging in-person OT site inspections with technology automation. Two expert panelists will investigate effective approaches to address challenges of achieving comprehensive cyber hygiene objectives with limited resources.
We will tackle key questions: How to best utilize tools to identify and mitigate cyber threats targeting OT assets, while also avoiding the pitfalls of over-reliance on automation? What's the role of human judgment, intuition, and safety considerations in the increasingly automated industrial control system landscape? How do we create an environment conducive to continuous learning and adaptation, given the rapidly evolving nature of cyber threats and rising critical infrastructure workforce challenges?
Audience members will gain a comprehensive understanding of:
• The importance to visit sites in person and establish strong relationships with stakeholders on both OT and IT sides,
• Hidden costs of operationalizing cybersecurity technology and the heightened importance of investing in people and processes in addition to tools,
• Practical examples to illustrate how to get started on the three pillars of OT cybersecurity: asset inventory, network diagram, and data flow diagram.
This discussion is essential for cybersecurity professionals, compliance analysts, and technology enthusiasts working with critical infrastructure and seeking to understand and contribute to cyber resiliency.
